Is any love more tender than young love, or more agonizing when threatened by extinction from outside forces? Shakespeare’s classic paradigm finds contemporaneity in “I’ll Find You,” a new film directed by Martha Coolidge. Instead of Romeo and Juliet in Renaissance Verona, we find Robert and Rachel in mid-20th Century Europe – ensnared by the tumult of World War II. “I’ll Find You”’s star-crossed lovers are played by Adelaide Clemens, an accomplished thespian from Australia, and newcomer Leo Suter from England.
“I’ll Find You” is produced by Zbigniew Raczynski & Luca Raczynski, Fred Roos and Bozenna Intrator from a screenplay by David S. Ward and Bozenna Intrator. Filmed in historic areas of Poland, primarily the cities of Krakow and Lodz, the movie boasts an illustrious international cast headed by Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård as an opera star compromised by the Nazis. Connie Nielsen and Stephen Dorff play key supporting roles. Robert and Rachel as youngsters are portrayed by Ursula Parker and Sebastian Croft.
Directed by Martha Coolidge.
In Theaters and VOD Friday, February 25th
